Specs:
The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The housing and lens are sonically sealed together to create a single unit, which means that water will not get into the light and damage the diodes or circuit board.
A P2-rated light produces a 45-degree angle of light to either side of its centerline for a total of 90 degrees of coverage. This beam pattern can be seen straight on, but it cannot be seen clearly from the side. So this type of light can be used as either a side marker light or a clearance light, but it cannot function as both. If you need both functions, then you must install 2 separate lights on your trailer - one as a front or rear clearance light and one as a side marker light.

Today we are going to take a look at Optronics Sealed Miro-Flex, Mini Star Side Marker Light with Clear Lens, part number MCL17CAB. This is a sealed and waterproof light so it is safe to use on boat or jetski trailers. It has a crystal clear lens with 3 amber-colored LEDs inside. The LEDs draw a total of .047 amps at 12.8 volts and are covered by a lifetime warranty from Optronics. There is also a snap on plastic chrome cover for the light. Next, we will hook it up to a power supply, so you can see how the light looks. We will connect one of our wire leads to our ground and the other to our power. Next, we will turn off the overhead lights, so you can see how bright it is. And that does it for Optronics Sealed Miro-Flex, Mini Star Side Marker Light, part number MCL17CAB.

4-3/16" x 1-3/8" Oval. Waterproof, LED trailer light serves as either a side marker light or clearance light. Miro-flex reflector increases light output. Surface mount - hardware not included. 2-Wire design. Amber LEDs. P2 rated.Great little lights, and very bright as well. They have been installed on a trailer and submerged many times since installed, and still work great!! Can't beat LED's for brightness and, hopefully, longevity!!! Attached is one picture of the overall trailer, and a closeup of the amber side light. I also have 2 red sidelights that are mounted above water at the rear of the trailer, and they are still working great as well.
Exact replacement, works.
Expected delivery showed 3-5 days. It has been 6 days and the order is still days away. This review is not about the lights, I just get tired of delivery expectations being overpromised on.
Great customer service!
Hi Katie---the recent purchase was for a set of new amber side lights for a small steel trailer that I am removing the rust and repainting, packing the wheel bearings, etc. I use this trailer to tow either a 10' wooden boat or a 10' aluminum boat, along with mulch, sod, and anything else that can fit on a 10' trailer.
Nice lights! I’ve had no problems with them. An updated look and part of an LED upgrade. Should last as long as the trailer does.

Great thanks!
Very nice and flashy design. Bright and easy to install. Makes a great edition to my landscape trailer.
Exact factory replacement clearance light on my bass boat.
exactly what i wanted to replace my old ones, 10 years from the old ones just like these.
One year later and it’s still in the box while the one on the trailer is still burnt out. It looks like it will work great!
Awesome lights and nice and bright. Install easy w/wiring a breeze.
The light was exactly what my tech was looking for, it did the job. we appreciate the quick shipping.
Great product. Gook looking and perfect lighting.
Great.
Great.
great product!!
The size was right, and the brightness of the LED light, let's people know there is a trailer in front of them, especially when braking, or making a turn
Much brighter than my previous tail lights. Easy to install. Would definitely buy again!
These side markers (both red and amber LED) are great for my 12' trailer. They have 3 LEDs (you can also get 4), and their size is perfect for a small trailer. The LED's are really bright, not only at night, but also during the day, so they are easily seen. I especially like the fact that they are sealed, so there should be no water intrusion problems in the future. I have included a few pictures, the first showing the round LED brake/turn/running/reverse lights (that I had purchased earlier from etrailer) with the red side marker mounted vertically on the outside. The second shows a side view of the red side marker light, and the 3rd picture shows the side marker mounted to a small piece of 1" X 1" x 1/8" aluminum angle which I painted black to match the mounting frame of the round LED lights. I mounted the LED side marker to one leg of the aluminum angle, then mounted the other leg with 1" standoffs to two holes already present on the black mounting frame of the round LED light. Although all the lights are sealed against water intrusion, I decided to mount them on each side of the trailer at the top of 2 PVC pipes, about 36" long each, where the lights would not be exposed to immersing in water when launching/retrieving a boat.
I installed these lights in a T@B teardrop camping trailer. The grommet would not work on this style trailer so I installed the lights using a silicone adhesive the same as the original Peterson lights. eTrailer delivered them in the same timely manner I have come to expect from them and the LEDs were easy to install. These lights are blindingly bright - simply amazing. I had rear lights with 1157 bulbs which I had upgraded to 2357 bulbs and equipped the tow vehicle with a powered converter but the light output was dim by today's standards. These lights are twice as bright on running lights and about 4 times brighter on the brake/turn signal elements. The thing we all fear when towing is being hit from behind by a driver that does not see our running, brake or turn signal lights in time. I know these lights will vastly improve the safety and visibility of our trailer. Thanks!
This fixture was the exact replacement for my 2011 Trailmanor 2720 trailer. The manufacturer had moved to a more modern looking fixture. I was even able to use the old chrome piece from the old fixture to keep a uniform age look. I installed a wireless rearview camera and needed a new fixture and its longer wires to make everything work. May look a little strange, but it works like a charm. E-Trailer service was excellent as usual.
I received the lights and tested
them; they worked fine. They are destined to be used on a car, not a
trailer. Side marker lights for cars/trucks are rare now because they are
incorporated into the front and rear light assemblies and rap around the
vehicle. The lights I ordered from you are the only ones I could find that
had a hole-mount pattern wide enough to clear the metal cutouts, under the
old lights, in the fenders of my car. I'm glad you have a huge selection to
choose from. I'm not sure when I'll get around to installing them. The car
is undergoing a restoration for the third time. All I know is the next time
I remove the stock side markers, they will shatter. Few trim parts are
available for this car these days and nylon snap-in mounting tabs dry rot
and break after a couple of decades. I bought this little car new 26 years
ago and took it around the world with me before I retired from the Air
Force.
I attached a picture of it from the last touchups 7 years ago. It won't quit
running so I keep giving it new birthdays. This little rat car has become a
part of my DNA.

These side lights are bright LEDs and the amber ones have been submerged more than once-and are still working great!! The red side lights are mounted high on the vertical poles, so do not get submerged in water. However, all 4 side lights have been exposed to the weather for over a year, and all are still burning bright!! These are cool little LED lights!!
